I have six yearling Simmental and SimAngus bulls for sale and a two and three year old SimAngus bull ready to go to work this spring from a closed herd. My herd was started with high quality registered seedstock from Braun Simmental Farms, McCurry Brothers Angus, Ruby Cattle Company, Sankeys 6N Ranch, Sherwood Cattle Company, Leachman of Colorado and Hidden Valley Ranch, purchaser of many Eagle Ranch cows in their dispersal. 

These bulls are extremely docile and fed a high roughage diet with a small amount of grain so they have adequate, solid weight gain and develop great feet and legs to last in your herd. They are bred for growth and maternal value and won't fall apart when they start breeding cows. These bulls will gain weight over the summer on grass because they haven't been fed hard. Good rule of thumb is one cow per month of age for breeding. 

Photo above is from the 2020 Simmental Junior National Show in Brookings, SD where Jacob exhibited the 4th place overall Percentage Simmental Bull that we raised. We don't try to raise show bulls, but sometimes they turn out darn good! Second and third pictures are bulls we've raised and sold. Fourth picture is DaySpring Grandmaster born in 2012 that we raised and used as a herd bull for 8 years. Fifth picture is our herd bull Lees Uno Mas, a stout, moderate bull with a great phenotype - sire of 168, 291 and bull Jacob showed in SD.
